There’s one prospect, however, that has been consistently held up as an example of their development process working: Zack MacEwen. The 22-year-old winger was unheralded when he entered the Canucks system, but has shown consistent and steady improvement throughout his time in Utica, becoming a legitimate prospect deserving of an NHL call-up.
